the few things you've mentioned about him in the last day or so are the same issues he's had since 1999. just sucks that they keep happening year after year despite different personel.
I'd get rid of manuel tomorrow if possible. He isn't a good manager. the phils win in spite of him, not because of him.
one could say the phils win despite of manual while the eagles don't ultimately win because of andy reid.www.myspace.com0 -

Well, now that's just crazy talk. I like the dude, but not that much. It's not like the Eagles weren't good before Reid. I'm giving him enough time to evolve Kolb - this season and next. After that, the straws are gone.
There was some intentional exaggeration there. I just think reid is ridiculously underappreciated here. I like him more than most.
I like him a lot too, but I think the only person who likes him more than you is Lurie. That's the biggest reason Reid will be here a while - he makes that crook nose a shit ton of money. But once that is compromised is when Reid will be let go. Which could be sooner than later if his delopment of another franchise QB doesn't work out.
Oh, and by the way, were those uniforms CLEARLY the fucking best things you ever seen in your life? And here we sit with these stupid fucking dark green jerseys with the shittiest helmets in the league due to Lurie's wife. Gay.
The field and the uni's looked better than anything they've ever done in the history of anything.0 -
the kelly green was fantastic jp. i loved it. but it just made me bitter to know we'd be going back to the midnight green next week. the fact that our owner's wife came up with our team's logo and colors is shameful. shameful.
sooner or later they will realize that kelly green will sell better than what they have now and go back to them full time....or at least as the alternate jersey. nothing worse than those black jerseys.www.myspace.com0 -

Kolb will be fine.
Completely agree regarding the jerseys. Unfortunately that was a 1 game thing. I just bought the celek throwback on this site. It's not the authentic jersey that goes down to my knees (and I'm 5'11) and my wrists, but they are quality (my buddy got the kolb one and had it on at our fantasy draft -- they are great). Can't beat the price, apparently they have these at the eagles store for $85. money

I'm hoping them wearing these things is like when the Sixers spent the past few years slowly phasing in the old school uni's which ultimately ended up permanent. Maybe a couple years from now. Never fuck with the basic colors or logo of a team. Destroys any and all tradition of a team and city. The Birds are suppose to be Kelly Green, they should stay Kelly Green. It's why the Flyers have easily had the best logo out of the four teams over the years.0 -

kolb will be fine if reid doesnt screw him up with vick...
yeah a few people at our tailgate bought jersey's from that site. they are made in japan. i pride myself in being able to spot irregularities in those kinds of knockoffs and it was pretty difficult. the eagle logo was a bit off (he had a graham jersey) other than that, it was pretty damn good.
my cunningham jersey is the shit though. mitchel and ness--with the jb 99 patch. completely authentice 1992 jersey with too many numerous tailgate beer stains to mention. only on game days. only game days.www.myspace.com0 -

remeber 1995? the year before they made the logo/color switch? they removed the old eagles font from the endzone. it looked so dull and boring. bastards.www.myspace.com0 -

I remember by the end of the season it was real weird.
What they had on yesterday, and what the field looked like, should be like that forever. The E A G L E S in the endzones and the big bird in the middle was fucking awesome.0 -
I have an authentic dawkins jersey and one of the reebok mcnabb ripoffs (not the ones with the ironed on numbers...I'm pretty sure it's the same as these jerseys on that site, which is chinese). I like the mcnabb one better because it fits better. the authentic dawkins jersey I wore once to Lambeau field. It hung down around my knees, which is not a good look.
Only difference I can tell between the two jerseys I have is that the mesh holes on the fake jersey are 3 times larger than the holes on the real one.
I'll have a full report later this week when this bad boy arrives0 -

i'd prefer them to just switch to the 70's or 80's/early 90's editions. a bit more trimming in the feather on the helmets. the silver pants were bad ass back in those days too. silver and green---those used to be our colors....not midnight green and black.www.myspace.com0 -

No way on the silver pants. Yes, they were the uni of my youth, but that's it. Ugly as shit.0 -

we'll have to agree to disagree on that one. i hate how teams alternate their pants these days. sliver and green baby. that's all you need.www.myspace.com0 -

More than anything, I can't stand the current wings on the helmet. Looks like a seagull's wing.0 -

yeah...again they felt the need to add black in there.
i will say this about the current uniforms: they are better than what they originally were changed to in 1996. remeber they used to have those stripes on their sleeves for the white uniforms? and the green looked more blue back then. awful. it still looks blue under a certain kind of light. they fixed that a couple years in and altered them slightly more in '03 for the better. very subtle changes.
ever check this site out? http://www.uniwatchblog.com/
i love shit like this.www.myspace.com0 -
any predictions on what the line will be this weekend? I honestly haven't seen it...probably won't be out until the eagles give injury updates later in the week.
I'm thinking it will be eagles -3, regardless of the QB0 -
Yeah, that's good stuff. Though, I don't mind when they go green on green with the jerseys and pants better than the white on white. Even if there was a flare gun shot off when they sported the look before.
Right now, the Sixers have the best uni's, followed by the Flyers, Phils, then Eagles.0 -

Might be higher with Stafford out. Who's their backup again?0 -

yeah nothing till they know who the qb is. is stafford definitely out? you miss a lot being down at the game....one cool thing they've done is add the redzone to all tvs in the concourse.
i think vick will give the birds an extra point regardless though.www.myspace.com0
